Facts you've recently found out that have blown your mind?

Ok so I will kick this off. I clearly did not pay attention during sex ed cos here I am mid 30s just finding this out.

Your pee and your period come out of 2 different bits.

Astonished when I found this out today reading reviews on moon cups.

Anyone got any to add?

I've had an iPhone for years and only discovered last week if you press the button twice it brings up all you open apps 😨

I think it's Brad Pitt that's the same age as Nigel Farage.

Yes, that was it! Just looked it up, they are both 54.

This isn't a mind-blowing fact more of a ridiculous, how did I not know this fact. Until a few years ago I thought Skegness was in Scotland and worryingly, was convinced New Zealand was north of Australia not south. I actually was do convinced if this I thought the map I was looking at must be wrong

Oh dear.
Mind blown at OP

That there were people alive when President Kennedy got shot whose parents had emigrated across America in the wagon trains.

Ooh my post is all red
Ive been about forever but just got savvy enough to upload the app.
( embarrassed)
Ps Op
You have 3 low down openings.

This is why parents should use the correct biological terms for body parts rather than foofoo rubbish. Basic teaching of anatomy shouldn't be left to science/page teachers.

So have you ever had sex with a man OP, did you think he was putting it in your urether? What happens when you’re pregnant, how did you think you’d pee?

OP get thee to a biology book! (Or a hand mirror).
I had to explain to a youngster at work that the "save" icon is the shape it is because of the actual physical discs we used to have to save our data on. He was mind blown. I felt as ancient as the bloody Trex.

@sirmione16
I find that heartbreakingly sad!😩😢😭

We were watchinng "Jaws" a few weeks ago my there was a scene where they were typing a letter on a typewriter i first of all had to explain what a typewriter was to my 11 yr old he than asked where the delete button was had to explain about tippex he was mind blown

Fireman Sam and Robert the Robert are the same person!

Not me but my DP (40 at the time) only found out at ante-natal classes that a womb and a uterus were the same thing - apparently he thought I had one of each. Once for the baby and the other ... to keep a packed lunch in maybe?

@Pawnee and when she went away (at 100+ years) she was told she was too old to hire a car... so she bought one.

The tenth president of the united states John Tyler born in 1790 still has two living grandsons

I was going to submit the Farage/Depp/Pitt age facts but they’ve already been said! Blew my mind that did

Urethra batty

Sorry Asteroid, my phone has a mind of its own when it comes to spelling.

Have we done the Channel fucking Tunnel yet?

What about the channel tunnel?

My Dad told me earlier that a violin is nicknamed a fiddle because the bloke who made them in their thousands was called Fidel. I have not fact checked this. It could be bollocks.

My dh thought a terra cotta was a small orange tortoise bred and harvested for its shell. Which was, apparently, a crying shame. Couldn't believe it that he'd been boycotting B&Q for years due to this cruel practice that never existed

@cloudtree wow! How can that be!?! Mind blowing.

What about the Channel Tunnel? I thought it would be like a clear tube and you'd be able to see all the marine life swim by 😃

What's the face about Loch Ness and Ben Nevis? Loch Ness is deeper than Ben Nevis is high? Am prepared to be corrected on that one 😬

Fact not face. Bloody autocorrect 🙄

We must be due the one about envelope shoulders on baby vests too.
